Checking your google play balance

[NickNexus]

How do you do that? The only way I see is to purchase something.

Go to Google wallet online (not the app) and it shows the balance underneath the balance of your prepaid. On the left side you will see payment methods click it and it should be there.

Thank you. For some reason I couldn't figure this out and it was bugging the s*** out of me.

Just checked my balance, I have 38 cents left. How am I supposed to spend that? The Play Store doesn't seem to allow combining payment methods

Just spent my first few bucks on tablet talk. Can you add to your balance?

I searched for a way but no luck. Even poked around the Wallet website, didn't see an option for it.

No. The email I got says very clearly "$25.00 credit can be used only for purchases with a combined cost of $25.00 or less."

There's no way to combine remaining balances of the $25 with anything else, so you'll almost certainly end up with something under $1 remaining when you're done spending it.

The key is, if you want to make any larger purchases with it, make those first. Then you can blow the last few bucks on a few 99 cent apps or something and be left with less than a buck "wasted".

If I was worried about a 75 cent balance on a freebie that came with my Nexus, I wouldn't be the kind of person to piss away $250 on the thing to start with. It's a toy, and I will use the freebie that came with it to buy virtual toys to use on my toy.

I haven't spent any of mine yet. It doesn't expire, does it?

Funny you guys bring this up.
Droid Life just posted some information on this.
Google Wallet update Allows You to Add Any Credit Card or Debit Card.

I think it expires one year from the day you activated your tablet.

Well said.

This should answer most questions, in case anyone else comes across this thread with the same question.

All you have to do is buy a Google Play card and it will add it to your balance.

you can also click on Google play on your Nexus 7 then the three dots then redeem. That will give you your balance as well.
